June 7 from 10:00 am - 12:30 pm. Join us for a hike in the hills behind Cambria to see the rare Arroyo de La Cruz manzanita, Arctostaphylos cruzensis, as well as two other manzanita species. Initially, we will walk through tall grassland, then up into the Monterey Pine forest where we will spend most of our time. This is a 3-mile hike with a 400 ft. elevation gain taking 2.5 hours and located in the Cambria Pines Ecological Reserve. Afterwards, we can reconvene at Sandy’s Deli for lunch and browse the Friends of Fiscalini Ranch Preserve store next door. We will gather in the parking lot of the old Santa Rosa School House. For carpooling from the City of San Luis Obispo area, meet in the Santa Rosa Park parking lot at 9:00 am. Bring water, snacks, sunscreen, hat, sturdy shoes, and dress in layers for changing weather.
